BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, as a method of stockpiling oil, there is a so-called underwater stockpiling method in which a tank is installed underwater. This underwater stockpiling method involves either mooring the tank underwater or letting it land on the bottom, but in order to offset the buoyancy and external pressure when the oil is taken out of the oil tank, the volume of the taken out oil is stored in seawater, etc. You need to replace it with . By the way, in the oil-water replacement method, the oil and seawater are separated by utilizing the difference in specific gravity, that is, by providing the oil outlet at the top of the tank and the seawater outlet at the bottom of the tank. However, in reality, oil becomes an emulsion in the oil-water boundary layer, and substances such as sludge, which have a specific gravity heavier than irrigation water, inevitably mix with reeds, oil, and water.

For this reason, the inventor provided a cylindrical body made of a flexible material in the tank, and placed a liquid with a light specific gravity inside the cylindrical body, and a liquid with a heavy specific gravity outside the cylindrical body. We have previously proposed an underwater oil storage tank in which oil and water separation is ensured, and the cylindrical body can be taken in and out from the top of the tank, making maintenance and inspection of the cylindrical body easy.

By the way, in such a submersible oil storage tank, when the amount of storage is large, the size becomes large, and the height reaches from several tens of meters to more than 100 meters. Therefore, when a cylindrical body made of a flexible material is to be lifted up by a crane ship or the like for replacement or maintenance inspection, the work becomes difficult due to the effects of tidal currents, wind and waves, etc. In addition, a high-lift crane is required to lift this cylindrical body onto the ship.
